Wow Terry that is some collection of photo's you've put up!
A good historical reference for anyone, in the future, wanting to know what the last deep mine in the Wigan Borough looked like.
Do you want some information for the pics, a bit more meat on the bones?

The Packet pub at the bottom end of Plank Lane.
Some time after closure a haulage firm named C.Broome. took it over and used it as their base.
In the background are No4 and No3 pits
